Johnny Flynn

Johnny Flynn never disappoints and the acoustics at Brighton Music Hall are fantastic.

The openers, The Melodic, were fantastic! Followed by an incredible performance by Johnny Flynn. Wow! Amazing guitar, hauntingly beautiful vocals, and good lord what amazing lyrics! I was blown away. Following the concert, Johnny stayed and met with every last one of the fans who wanted a picture and to chat. He is a wonderfully kind, smart, and engaging, genuine person.

Terrific show, opening act was fun, Johnny was funny AND sounded terrific.

Johnny Flynn is one of my favorite artists, and I'm so excited he came to play in San Francisco. I've seen him live once before, but it was at a festival so it was a much bigger setting. The Rickshaw Stop was the perfect venue - small enough that we were hardly 8 feet from where he was singing. He is charismatic and charming, and altogether a fantastic musician. Nothing compares to seeing him live, he has the capability to fill the entire room using just his rich voice and guitar. I'm already in love with The Melodic (the opening act) whom I'd never heard before. They brought a sort of quirky folk sound to the stage with the use of a six string ukulele and mouth accordions.

The Melodics played a fantastic opening set for Johnny Flynn at Brighton Music Hall last Friday night. I liked them so much I bought their debut album. And then Johnny came on and had us singing and harmonizing with him. I've seen him 3 times and he's never done an encore, but he did two that night! I was in heaven!

What a fantastic show. Melodic was the perfect opener for Johnny Flynn. I'm counting down the days until he comes back. The Sussex Wit wasn't there which I didn't mind, it allowed for a really intimate show and some unexpected moments you can only get with a solo artist. Plus next time I see the whole band I'll get a totally new experience. Johnny Flynn, keep making beautiful music.

Johnny was great and we loved The Melodic!!!!!!!!!!

Johnny Flynn is amazing, and the Melodics (the openers) were fantastic too!

Amazing show, no other way to describe it. It started with the opening act, which was performed by an awesome band called "The melodic". They were so good, and the energy was great. Then came Johnny and his band, and from the first to the last song they nailed it. You know a show is good when you are just as happy to hear a song you don't know as you are when it comes one that you do. That was definatedly the case. The songs that I knew were even better live than the recorded versions - and the recorded versions are already good - and those I did not know ...- wow, can't wait for the next album that is coming soon And the best part, everything was so unpretensious. The band, him, the opening act, it was all so good. This night was all about great music, and the result was an amazing show.

Johnny was great. After listening to his records for years I was very excited for this concert. He lived up to my expectations and gave a great set including old and new songs. Don't miss this show!

Best concert I have been to. They played a great show and a lot of the music from their new album. Everyone really was into the show and the energy was awesome.

Really incredible show. Very intimate, he was very easy to love and put on a great show. The set list spanned across his old and new albums and flowed beautifully. One of the best shows I've seen in a long time.

Truly, this gig was fantastic. Really, really well done. Johnny Flynn is easily one of the most important songwriters of his generation. No one makes music like he does, and he is one of a kind.

Johnny Flynn is such a gifted performer. I'm amazed by how he handles the quick instrument changes. I would love to see him again, a real pleasure to watch.

Show was sold out. It was a great show. They played all of his best, and my favorite, songs. Was very impressed that almost everyone in the audience knew all the words. Speaking of which, the audience was very enthusiastic and seemed to also be enjoying the show a great deal.

I was super bummed, I never got to see him play :( When I got to the venue, there was a sign on the door saying he wasn't playing till 11, and unfortunately, the friend I was with had to leave early, so I couldn't stay. I only got to see the first three songs of the first opening act (which was really good). But alas, no Johnny. I heard he was amazing though. I was so close but so far away!! I may or may not have cried about it later. Maybe one day I'll see him in person! <3

Amazing. Love his ability to play so many different instruments.

Wonderful set... so happy to see Lillie on her flute!

The show was so much fun, great energy!! So Impressed with everyone involved; very talented bunch.

This is the second time I've seen Johnny Flynn, and he always puts on an amazing concert. He sounds just as great live as he does on his cd's, and he never ceases to amaze me with his brilliant songwriting, as well as his voice.

Here is an example of an artist who truly has talent (as opposed to highly produced recordings). Sounds as good live as on his albums. Also put together a pretty lengthy set list, which was nice. Highly recommend picking up his albums and seeing him if you get the chance!

This was my first time attending a show at the Duck Room and the whole experience was great. Johnny Flynn was fantastic! What a talented all round musician! I hope his career lasts a long time and more people find out about his music. So worthwhile.

Well done, Mr. Flynn and company. I would see again in a heartbeat.

Johnny and the band put on a great show. It is always a bonus when an artist sounds the same in a live performance as they do on the albums. i hope to be able to see them perform again soon!

great performance by all. love the great variety of instruments. Johnny is great; however, it was great to be able to see the Sussex Wit as well. Johnny's songs are so interesting, he sings so well, and has a great ability to connect with the audience. I did miss the cello. Perhaps they don't travel well. here's hoping they return to little old St. Louis soon!

Johnny was amazing live! There's not much else to be said. I mean, the concert was pretty bare bones, but that's part of the overall charm. His voice was stunning, exactly as you'd expect it to be. I guess the only bad thing I could say would be that I don't remember him talking to the audience much, and I really like a bit of banter at live shows. But it doesn't matter that much. He's really worth seeing. If he comes to your town, don't miss him!

Johnny Flynn was incredible! He sounds just like he does on the album... that's his real voice!

Not only did we get Johnny Flynn's signature, he took time to make the overall experience unforgettable to his audience. His new album was uplifting and provided a wonderful dancing experience. My husband and I loved the small venue, and will continue to be loyal fans.

Loved Johnny Flynn!! Would like to see him again.....very talented guy.
